Pop-Up Cafeteria Eateries

This School Cafeteria Restaurant Lets You Relive the Glory Days

This nostalgic pop-up cafeteria restaurant called 'After School Club' will bring back all the memories of your childhood lunchtime rituals. The eatery will set up shop in London, England at the end of this month to provide you with youthful comfort food from your past.

The cafeteria restaurant will serve you traditional school meals using plastic school trays and cutlery. The menu will include obvious items such as fish sticks and alphabet soup. The experience provided by the After School Club will be a one-of-a-kind dinner complete with milk monitors and a little bit of homework.

The eatery will charge you about $88 to relive the best or worst part of your childhood. Either way, the restaurant won't be a permanently operating eatery so you might as well join the fun while you can.
